<beaware> [Long nasty email] </beaware>
Hello linuxers ! A minute ago I heared a songs CD (Coca Cola's free CD), the songs are only heardable from a cdplayer (in my case I used gnome CD Player) and cannot be viewed from the CD itself as files (the same for w1nd0wZ). The problem arised when the last song ended. The computer (X in that time but console too) frozed for couple of seconds and then returned to work while hearing 2 beeps not from the speaker, but from the sound blaster. Again after few seconds the computer frozed again but without the 2 beeps and continued doing so on and on... I have tried first to unmount and eject the CD-rom (in the few time I gotten when it wasn't frozen) but the eject showed nothing and didn't return me back to the shell. Also /mnt/cdrom1 wasn't actually mounted ('mount' and listing the files in the cdrom [there was one file viewable, the clip mpg file.) After couple of tries I thought it was X so I CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE back to console and saw the problem continued but there were error messages thrown at me there. I quickly copied them to a file and the file is attached to this message. Then rebooting and while the BIOS doing its nasty stuff I ejected the cd ('cold eject' if you would like to call it like that) and booted linux. Everything worked just fine and then I started writing this message. What do you think a CD problem ? CD Player problem ? Disk Problem ? On my other partition which has another OS (which should remain nameless,) the CD worked well without any crashes or freezes. I run Redhat 7.2 with kernel 2.4.2-2 need more details, just reply. Any ideas what to do ?
